Moon because gosh, those two are hilarious. I want to watch how PH is going to survive the conspiracy - whatever the conspiracy is. Of course, thats if the Seung-hee persona is a disguise.

No one gets a kidney transplant if they've got one good kidney left. since this drama contains so many plot holes and impossible-things- could- happen in this drama, maybe,,, despite of a kiss with another man, Soo-hyun could end up with Hoon and Hoon and Soo-hyun can show more swoon worthy kisses. Doctor Stranger. 1. (But the preview of episode 7 looks promising with the premises moving back to the hospital and doctors and surgeries, so all is good for now). The conspiracy thickens. Soo-hyun agrees, but then makes the misstep of trying to toast to Jae-hee, whos in heaven.. The show is forcing us to believe in the Hoon-Jaehee relationship but not showing us enough about WHY we should believe in it. I am trying . Instead, it makes my head spins trying to wring out the suspense in every character (except Hoon, SooHyun and Dr Moon and that's why I enjoy them so much) The writer keeps trying to introduce character with huge mysterious plot line then plays the game that feeds me a tiny bit informati22on once a while. I have mixed feelings about it because of those random pointless things. Not at all. It beats the alternative of the audience knowing all the secrets way ahead of timebecause spending episode after episode waiting for the hero to figure out what we already know is a formula that undoubtedly works, but one thats also a lot like knowing who the winner is before the race even starts. And even PH/Jaejoon. Anyway, that whole Seung Hee/Jae Hee story line is boring to me because I don't like Jin Se Yeon much as an actress.

Entire scenes were spent kind-of-maybe-not-really trying to paint a picture of the Big Conspiracy going on, and if the point was merely to show us that there is a conspiracy without revealing anything about said conspiracy, then mission accomplished: were still confused. But now that Hoon is back in the hospital and Chairman Oh is under Prime Minister Jangs thumb, Seung-hee claims that everything is going to plan. As a child, Park Hoon (Lee Jong-suk) and his father Park Cheol (Kim Sang-joong) were tricked and sent to North Korea. Have fun, ya lucky Beanies. (P.S. Seung-hee looks to Soo-hyun for help as she pulls her wrist out of Hoons grasp, and at least Soo-hyun tries to diffuse the situation by asking Seung-hee whether she knows anyone named Song Jae-hee.

Not just Soo-hyun's but also pretty Doctor Moon. Doctor Stranger depicts a medical-intelligence melodrama about a massive conspiracy surrounding a genius doctor born in South Korea but raised in North Korea by the name of Park Hoon (Lee Jong Suk) and South Koreas top elite doctor Han Jae Joon (Park Hae Jin.) This episode was an episode which just re-established what we already knew, and what we don't, we still don't. Oh "Coffee House" - my favorite ever!!! Agent Cha hands Nightshade records of Chang-yis mom going in and out of a coma as proof of Seung-hees skills.. Press J to jump to the feed.

He owns the part of Jae-joon with authority even if I don't like the character for being a user of Soo-hyun. How much time has she given herself for self reflection? How was she saved in time because she was shotandshe was in the water? And Soo-hyun is awesome. For a moment even Soo-hyun looks lost, as she remembers the uncanny resemblance between the two but cant find a logical explanation as to what on earth is going on. According to you, who was the most awesome character in this episode? By doing that, the writer tries to build the suspension but instead, it goes backfire. Fortunately however, the more that Hoon tries to prod and affront her, chances are we're going to see more of her Jae Hee side and the emotions underneath. I think the video was brought by the smuggler to prove to Hoon that Jae Hee is alive. Then, I decided to try Doctor Stranger and went in with low expectations because I hadnt heard much praise for this one. I still do hope to see Jae Joon make a turn around and be the proper lover to win back Soo Hyuns heart which will inevitably only be broken by pining too much to our Dr Stranger.

Soo-Hyun ends up liking Hoon and her journey on that plotline was pretty interesting to watch as well. Speaking of, Hoon wakes up to find framed pictures of Seung-hee hanging on the walls, and immediately thinks of Jae-hee. As of now Doctor Stranger is pretty much about Hoon's unyielding love for her. My suggestion? I know that its supposed to show Hoon as the only good doctor who cared about the patients and Jae-Joon as someone willing to do anything to climb ranks and destroy the hospital, but still. She throws things at him in response, and manages to knock him out cold with a flimsy plastic bowl. She can't be just the love interest, there has to be more going on with her or the whole plot doesn't work. He's a skilled surgeon who graduated as a top medical student from Harvard.

There were multiple (four, if I remember right) such competitions held over several episodes. One of them even remarks on how asinine it is for the president to trouble the man (Prime Minister Jang) who put him in office with the inquiry about his campaign funds, in a clear show of support for Jang.

But they were tricked and the father-son duo wasnt allowed to return to South Korea. Its very difficult to grasp all of the different aspects between the characters, such as tone, choice of words, and expressions. We never really got to know Jae-hee anyway, and Seung-hee is totally taking cold and calculating to another level, even playing with Chang-yi's mum's life just to do a mission for her country *sigh* Im actually hoping he falls in love with her but i mean thats 99.9% out of the question so ill just not hope in that. But you forgot that Soo-hyun kissed another guy! Just look if there's a scar. Sometimes, an inspiration is better left to be admired from a distance rather than to be possessed for yourself, doing so, only make it lose its meaning and significance. She adamantly refuses that shes Jae-Hee but Hoon doesn't accept that, believing that she is Jae-hee. TV-14. The same way, I really do feel for PH/Dr. Drunk hoon calls for jae hee because he's a bery love sick boi Season: 1. Ngl I watched this drama for LJS. . ZaaZaaSierra. 59min.

The two of them have some sort of arrangement going on, and it involves getting Hoon to remain employed at Myungwoo Hospital. yes, that trope has been overused but i REFUSE to believe that Seung-hee is someone else who looks exactly like her (or fixed her face to look like JH) or is committed to being a NK spy knowing everything that had happened to Hoon.

Park Hoon is emotionally tormented as a doctor who looks excatly like his lost love Song Jae Hee continues to insist that she is not. Heartbeats are not like fingerprints. Hoon brushes him off with his usual cavalier attitude, and asks if Jae-joon means he has to steer clear of the quack., Thats when Jae-joon grabs him by the lapels, all but growling into his face that he cant call Soo-hyun a quack. Why? in the sense, yes, i acknowledge they're in a relationship; but no, i don't feel invested in their relationship. An excellent point! After Prime Minister Jang has a good laugh at the presidents penchant for punctuality (this guy needs to get out more), he asks Nightshade about Seung-heehe wants to see her skills firsthand.

Doctor Stranger is currently the only drama outta the current bunch thats got me hooked. You saved yourself 10 hours. At this point, I cant help but blame the actress. I also don't get the hate JSY has been getting. If you continue to use this site we will assume that you are happy with it. PM Jang might be an important person, but I dont think he has the same clout nor is he even remotely comparable to that of NKs great leader, that his death will ignite yet another upheaval of nuclear proportions.

I dropped it as soon as I reached the part where Park Hoon meets his old flame at the hospital like.. why? While Lee Jong-suk does an excellent job portraying his despair in wanting Jae-hee back, their relationship is not really believable. But thats just a minor detail (admittedly one of many) that I can easily overlook as I'm loving this show so far! HOWEVER the rest of the show was awful. Pleaseee i want to know.

What I do like about Seung Hee is that her storyline, whether she's always been a spy, has been brainwashed or she's not Jae Hee at all, by its nature it has to be independent from Hoons.

Too bad Park Hae-jin gets so little screentime, but looking at his coldness here I start to see why he was initially cast as the villain in YFAS. But in the video scene, JH looked somewhat awake/conscious of her actions when she was saying "hoon ah" and holding out her hand. Am not too concerned, let the plot show its face when it shows its face! I liked the is she Jae-Hee or is she Seung-Hee? debate I had throughout the show.
